WPDM 2019 The Third International Workshop on Parallel and Distributed Data Mining (WPDM 2019) http://sara.unisalento.it/~cafaro/WPDM2019/ CALL FOR PAPERS The Third Workshop on Parallel and Distributed Data Mining (WPDM 2019) will be held in conjunction with The 19th International Conference on Computational Science and Its Applications (ICCSA 2019), http://www.iccsa.org Saint Petersburg University, Saint Petersburg, Russia July 1-4 2019 Submission Deadline extended to: March 15, 2019 SCOPE AND OBJECTIVES The Workshop on Parallel and Distributed Data Mining is an international forum which brings together researchers and practitioners working on different high-performance aspects of data mining algorithms, enabling novel applications. Data mining techniques and algorithms to process huge amount of data in order to extract useful and interesting information have become popular in many different contexts. Algorithms are required to make sense of data automatically and in efficient ways. Nonetheless, even though sequential computer systems performance is improving, they are not suitable to keep up with the increase in the demand for data mining applications and the data size. Moreover, the main memory of sequential systems may not be enough to hold all the data related to current applications. Therefore, there is an increasing interest in the design and implementation of parallel data mining algorithms. On parallel computers, by exploiting the vast aggregate main memory and processing power of processors and accelerators, parallel algorithms can easily address both the running time and memory requirement issues. Anyway, parallelizing existing algorithms in order to achieve good performance and scalability with regard to massive datasets is not trivial. Indeed, it is of paramount importance a good data organization and decomposition strategy in order to balance the workload while minimizing data dependences. Another concern is related to minimizing synchronization and communication overhead. Finally, I/O costs should be minimized as well. The Workshop will allow exchanging ideas and results related to on-going research, focusing on high-performance aspects of data mining algorithms and applications. Creating breakthrough parallel algorithms for high-performance data mining applications requires addressing several key computing problems which may lead to novel solutions and new insights in interdisciplinary applications. The focus of the workshop is on all forms of advances in high-performance data mining algorithms and applications, and related topics. The WPDM Workshop topics include (but are not limited to) the following: - Parallel data mining algorithms using MPI and/or OpenMP - Parallel data mining algorithms targeting GPUs and many-cores accelerators - Parallel data mining applications exploiting FPGA - Distributed data mining algorithms - Benchmarking and performance studies of high-performance data mining applications - Novel programming paradigms to support high-performance computing for data mining - Performance models for high-performance data mining applications and middleware - Programming models, tools, and environments for high-performance computing in data mining - Caching, streaming, pipelining, and other optimization techniques for data management in high-performance computing for data mining INSTRUCTIONS FOR PAPER SUBMISSIONS You are invited to submit original and unpublished research works on above topics.

03 Mar '19

(sorry for cross postings) ************************************* NUMTA Special Session on High Performance Computing in Modelling and Simulation (NUMTA2019-HPCMS) TH Le Castella Village Le Castella - Isola Capo Rizzuto Crotone, Italy DEADLINE (strict) for One-page Abstract submission: March 18, 2019 ************************************* CFP Model development for the simulation of the evolution of artificial and natural systems is essential for the advancement of Science. The increasing power of computers has allowed to considerably extend the application of computing methodologies in research and industry, but also to the quantitative study of complex phenomena. This has permitted a broad application of numerical methods for differential equation systems (e.g., FEM, FDM, etc.) on one hand, and the application of alternative computational paradigms, such as Cellular Automata, Genetic Algorithms, Neural networks, Swarm Intelligence, etc., on the other. These latter have demonstrated their effectiveness for modelling purposes when traditional simulation methodologies have proven to be impracticable. An important mission of the HPCMS Special Session within the NUMTA 2019 3rd International Conference and Summer School is to provide a platform for a multidisciplinary community composed of scholars, researchers, developers, educators, practitioners and experts from world leading Universities, Institutions, Agencies and Companies in Computational Science, and thus in the High Performance Computing for Modelling and Simulation field. The session intent is to offer an opportunity to express and confront views on trends, challenges, and state-of-the art in diverse application fields, such as engineering, physics, chemistry, biology, geology, hydrology, medicine, ecology, traffic control, economy, etc. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following: - High-performance computing in computational science: intra-disciplinary and multi-disciplinary research applications - Complex systems modelling and simulation - Cellular Automata, Genetic Algorithms, Neural networks, Swarm Intelligence implementations - Integrated approach to optimization and simulation - MPI, OpenMP, GPGPU applications in Computational Science - Optimization algorithms, modelling techniques related to optimization in Computational Science - High-performance Software developed to solve science (e.g., biological, physical, earth science and social), engineering, medicine, and humanities problems - Hardware approaches of high performance computing in modeling and simulation Submission The authors are invited to submit their one-page abstract before March 18, 2019 directly to the organizers of the special session (William Spataro spataro(a)unical.it) (please include "HPCMS - NUMTA abstract submission" in the email subject header). The abstract should be also submitted EasyChair system https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=numta2019 (please follow the EasyChair hints for the HPCMS session to correctly prepare and submit your abstract). In case of acceptance, the authors can submit their full papers (end of May) as reported on the NUMTA main web page ( http://si.dimes.unical.it/~yaro/numta2019/index.php) Accepted papers will be published in a LNCS volume after the Conference.
